ABSTRACT

The article investigates several pregnancy cravings. All sorts of weird and wonderful things happen to women when they get pregnant. But perhaps one of the strangest is when we are visited by the insatiable desire for a most unlikely food. A South African study showed that up to 84 percent of pregnant women experience some form of food craving. While some cravings may seem a little unusual, most do not present a danger to mother or baby.
